DIRECTIONS: Congratulations! You have done A LOT of work building your annotation skills. Keep annotating and using your annotation resources! That is a habit you must keep in order to be successful.
For this assignment, you will use your annotations (which I am not grading) to synthesize the research you have done and draw connections to your research question.
In this source chart, reflect upon your sources that connect to your research question: 2-3 expert articles and 2-4 student/teacher interviews. These sources should include student perspectives and expert perspectives.
NOTE: This step will be done BEFORE you write your thesis statement. You are in the research part of the writing process where you are exploring possible answers to your research question. This activity will help you write your thesis statement.
You will be graded on:
- Key ideas: You are able to identify key ideas from the article and state them in a few of your own words.
- Evidence to support key ideas: The evidence you cite (direct quotes or paraphrase) directly connects to the key ideas you identified.
- Connection to research question: You are drawing thoughtful connections between the resource and your research question. You are able to effectively identify ways the source addresses the research question.

“6 Reasons We Should See Students as
Changemakers” / Michael Fullen |
1. Students have never been more
prepared to change the world around them. 2. Educators must be prepared to honor
their desire to lead for change. |
1.
1. “Students born since 2000 are different. No other
generation has experienced as much fantastic technology, bombardment of
innovation, ravages of a pandemic, awareness and immediacy of the planet and
the universe, and uncertain and aimless futures.” 2.
2. “Changemakers are not isolated…Young individuals
and groups, working equally with adults will problem-solve—and will have a
vested interest in having good ideas stick…We have to give kids the
opportunity and experience to get better at this transformational work. There
is no better way to learn.” |
Student centered classrooms are key
to encouraging student leadership today that leads to community leadership
tomorrow. Classrooms should be centered on
students because their lived experiences are often vastly different from
those of their teachers. To make sure our classrooms are
student centered, students should have the opportunities to walk alongside
their peers and teachers to problem solve. This way, the teacher is mentoring
the student, and the student sees their own problem solving skills which
encourages future leadership. |
